Before the Storm by Glass_Mermaid    (Reviews - 491)

*Winner of the Draco/Ginny Fanfiction Award for Best Novel Length Story.* "Perhaps not everything is as black and white as it appears. Perhaps, even my father was tangled in a web of his own emotions, and in the end it spelled his death. Perhaps I too will share his fate, dying not for the cause I believe in, but for that which I cannot foresee." The ever weaving threads of our own decisions can lead to irrevocable knots, and when Lucius Malfoy is destroyed by unexpected forces, his son, Draco, is thrown into a world of political intrigue, insatiable passion and desperate gambits, opening doors he never thought to look for, and creating a life he never thought he would have as his own.

Well... I do not know how to begin this review. It was absolutely amazing, absolutely heartbreaking, melancholic, sad, and at the same time, hopeful, even if for just a little bit. Beautifully written, I must say.
And... Draco. Congratulations. I have never seen such a portrayal of him like this, so emotional and yet so enclosed within himself and his pain that you wonder if he has any emotions at all. He is cruel, raw, carries this pain and hatred for what happened to his parents, yet he can't seem to accept the other side as well (seeing how he behaves at the Weasley's).
I would like to comment on how I think that a more fierce Ginny could have also worked with him. She could have brought up this emotions he feels toward her, even if she was not this fragile, innocent girl you made her be. I'm not saying it was bad, she was a brilliant character, but she was a lite bit out of canon. For me, one of the motives that Draco and Ginny could work out in canon is because they both have their tempers, and Ginny is also a little bit of a "bully" (see how she treats Fleur).
This was one of the most amazing stories I have ever read, I absolutely loved it, you are a very very talented writer! Please don't stop brightening our worlds with your work! (sorry if there is any mistake, English is not my first language).

Hesperides' Apple by ogygiasylph    (Reviews - 871)

When Ginny Weasley becomes Draco Malfoy's wife, he suspects neither her true identity nor her dangerous motives. But when all Hell breaks lose and their relationship takes unexpected turns, there is more at stake than preserving their marriage--namely, preserving their lives.

Well, I know I am a bit late with this review, so I hope you read it because you deserve it.
Firstly, I just want to day that this fic kept me hooked all the time, and I couldn't wait to get home and finish it everyday (must confess I read it pretty fast).
The way you portrayed the characters are so real that I think this should be used as a model for other Fica (where Draco is suddenly good) . I believe that he is able to love but it is very hard to drop everything you were raised to believe since you were a kid, and that didn't go away until the end (the part where he donates money for Ginny's cause, he does it because he loves her, and not out of pure goodness of heart).
Ginny it beautifully presented also, but I think you have mastered Draco.
I seriously hope you read this, because you deserve every praise you get here. Also hope you keep writing!!!

A Night Forgotten by MemoriesFade    (Reviews - 49)

Ginny doesn't recognize the room she wakes up in. The same cannot be said for the man she wakes up next to. If only she could remember what happened the night before.

A Day in Court by MemoriesFade    (Reviews - 15)

No one ever knew what they would get when Draco Malfoy and Ginevra Weasley were in court, pitted against one another. But when one witness breeds jealousy between the two opposing attorneys, the shirts come off and skirts drop. A courtroom drama featuring shenanigans and a case of impotence.

Written for alura_embrey for the 2011 DG Fic Exchange. Winner of Best Smut.

Slytherin Squad by HalfBloodDragon    (Reviews - 156)

As the unintended Captain of the most despised Auror squad, can Draco Malfoy lead his band of Slytherins through Death Eater attacks and threats from the Ministry? Definitely not. At least, not without the help of his reluctant Lieutenant: Ginny Weasley. Inconveniently, the last person he'd ever ask.
